Good point. The tests in the other thread showed some improvement in read speed, but not much. Write speed may be important if the device is using a lot of scratch space (say, to store pre-rendered pages or cache documents while switching), I don't know what the DR does. I'd still like to find out whether its the the read speed (even for the faster cards) or the processor that is the bottleneck for opening documents etc.
